Why is it important?
This is a model for comparative corpora. It describes how data was selected following precise reproducible criteria and how the corpus was prepared using POS tagging and TEI-XML markup. It above all demonstrates how crafted corpora can give useful indexers to real questions rather than just having a garbage bag of everything found on the web.
